Grow teeth…where?

Oh yeah, all that hardcore gore was so kind and cuddly. Or the rampant, very out in the open child pornography.

I mean talk about delusional. The Internet was always a cess pool, it’s just that most of you fucks were either infants, or didn’t know how to use it.

Yeah but I don’t thi

I agree that we need to get away from coal and natural gas. I don’t think Nuclear is the answer though. You’re trading one set of major health and financial problems for another.

So I’ve installed and operated PTZ cameras for multiple television shows and events, sometimes with junior operators - or just production assistants or other crew. These are in places where people know cameras are present. I can guarantee it doesn’t take long for people at the camera control unit to learn they can zoom in on people’s phones on set or follow girls around - and these are all professional people.

Cops with a drone that can zoom in on people unwittingly, in their back yards?! Oh, they are certainly going to do shit like this, or worse - they’ll likely record for themselves.

Apple and oranges. It’s unhealthy and unsafe to live near Chernobyl. It took nearly a decade for people to start moving back to Fukushima Prefecture after decontamination and subsides to lure people back.

The actual cost of a Nuclear disaster is incredibly costly.

It still requires mining, processing and it still produces waste, waste which has to sit at the site of the nuclear reactor or be transported across country to some other temporary site. To my knowledge there is still no permanent disposal site for nuclear waste in the United States.

No they aren’t, for one and I wasn’t just talking about uranium but the refining of it - these definitely favor Russian in a war of resources.

Where are you getting that from?

I care. I care that we don’t make a rash decision for a potential short term solution. Why not ramp up solar / wind and other alternatives?

Define “clean”

Oh, and Nuclear Power plants are just plopped down? Your comment wreaks of pie in the sky, uneducated bullshit.

Solar and Wind don’t take nearly as much fuel, maintenance, zoning, upfront costs or be subject to international power plays like nuclear power.

But this is my argument against those who complain about Solar and Wind – those won’t kill you or destroy a location for hundreds of years if they break down and once they’re installed they don’t have to be fed by more mining, or anything else. Just wind and sun.

Why do I feel like the call for more nuclear power has just been another sneaky ass ploy by Russia to use resources as a source for power?

Edit: yup. Thanks for convincing me.

Nice try, Boss Man!

…15% of everyone who gets covid gets long covid? I’d like a link to this.

No, it’s just largely unnecessary. If you want to really protect people DON’T GO OUTSIDE YOUR HOUSE. Ever. Stay shut in, it’s the only way to be sure.

No one should shame anyone for wearing a mask. However no one should shame anyone for not wearing a mask.

I don’t begrudge anyone for wearing a mask in solidarity or to do what they think they can to save lives, but I’m on the side of feeling like I’m taking a personal bag to the store, or recycling plastic bottles like it’s actually doing something. I personally don’t like wearing a mask, and I feel like in most cases it’s just theater to do so.

What qualifies as a vulnerable individual? Do they wear a T-shirt saying so, or do we all have to wear masks on the off-hand chance we’re near one?

I’m starting to realize that the terminally online have just migrated to Lemmy. Who’s being selfish or inconsiderate? You’re forcing me to wear a thing on my face because you or someone else MIGHT get sick from a disease they will most likely survive, if not just shake off with zero consequences in a week like the common cold.

I did my part by getting vaccinated so I don’t add to the number of people who’ll go to the hospital. If things get really hairy I’ll wear a mask, but it’s really just for show. I don’t believe that it’ll do much to protect me from getting sick or potentially spreading the virus.
